Chapter 895 - Taking Hostages In



"Me?" Arthur started to gain interest in what they knew. "Tell me then," he demanded.

"Well they all spoke of a dragon with blue scales coming to this world," Deem slowly said before adding after a momentarily pause, "in fact what we read seemed weird but it was constantly repeated."

"Which is?" Arthur\'s patience was running thin at this moment.

"This world… it\'s not a simple world," Gor was the one to speak, "it\'s a gate, a portal linking this world to another one."

"A higher realm then?" Arthur asked after a long minute of thinking.

"No, it\'s a world where an ancient race lived before," Deem corrected.

"the originals!!" Arthur was already familiar with those who lived a long time before in this universe. Despite his surprise to find a relic world here, he wasn\'t that much shocked about hearing that.

He already went to a world controlled by an original before and took a trial there for his dragonair power. "We need to explore that world and gain all the treasures there."

"No, no we should never do that!" Deem suddenly said in a sharp and frightened tone that startled Arthur for a moment.

"Don\'t worry about them," Arthur realized his two grand minds were fearing the originals. They were a formidable race indeed, but they were long gone. "They are all dead. So don\'t worry about that."

"No, you are wrong," however what Gor said made Arthur feel fear for the first time ever about this race, "that world was designed to hold their criminals. And from the prophecies we read, you will eventually open that door and release all of them."

"Release them… you speak like… they are alive!" Arthur tried to smile but he was so nervous to do so.

"They are," and Deem confirmed his worst guess, "these criminals were made sure to be confined and tortured for eternity without dying."

"According to the prophecies, these folks are the worst of that race. They are all criminals, killers, robbers, and people who did all the heinous acts before. We shouldn\'t get involved with such scary and cruel people, we must not open that gate."

Arthur was now feeling afraid from opening this gate. "You have my word, I won\'t open the gate," he promised with sincerity.

"But…" However despite saying that, Deem and Gor never looked reassured or relaxed.

"But… what?" Arthur stressed to know what they knew. The two must know something he didn\'t know of, something that made even his promise worthless.

"The gate is bound to the one man who controls this world," Deem slowly said, "so your dream of conquering this world must stop or else… we are all doomed."

Arthur was taken aback for a brief moment before he figured out a way out. "Don\'t worry, I won\'t open the gate even if I conquer the world."

"But…"

"No more to say, I just gave you my word," Arthur stopped Deem from saying anymore, "c\'mon, don\'t tell me my words don\'t matter anymore."

The two went speechless and couldn\'t say anymore. At this moment many portals appeared as all the mage hostages were taken in by Doaf, Amera, the crow, and Nicole.

And thus what was left were the monsters that Arthur coveted. Arthur watched the many portals that Gege summoned before taking a deep breath and turned to his two trusted subordinates.

"Go inside now, let\'s have all rest back at our empire," he said before turning and started to fly away, giving no room for the two to say anymore.

"Sigh, we are doomed," Deem couldn\'t help but bitterly say.

"Don\'t think this way, he is this loyal to his people which makes me guilty to ask him not to conquer the world," Gor slowly said in dejected tone.

"Me too… however he doesn\'t know that the two he is desperately looking for are already confined inside that world. If he knew and if he had the world in his grasp…" Deem stopped what he was saying while his eyes and face told everything he was thinking about.

"I know… but what can we do? We can\'t ask him to suddenly turn his back on those loyal to him, to the two women he wanted to save," Gor sighed before starting to walk in slow steps, "we need to speak with everyone when we get back. We need to set a plan in motion before everything crumbles all around us."

Deem could only nod in helplessness. The two of them already read tens of prophecies speaking about what would happen if Arthur opened this gate.

And according to these prophecies, Arthur would open the gate to save his women. A good deed that would doom not only this world but the rest of the universe.

After all those originals confined in that prison world weren\'t weak or like any mage here. No one could stand against them and stop them, not even Arthur, not even those from the higher realms, not even the grandmasters.

However the two didn\'t have any way to persuade Arthur not to do that. They knew if Arthur knew, he wouldn\'t hesitate to hasten his plans to conquer this world and open that gate.

And so the first thing they had to do was to hide these facts off him and hope others might have a way to solve this catastrophe. Or else it would be the start of the end of this universe.

As Arthur flew high in the air, he was soon joined by the other four from the high realm. They already took in their hostages and waited for Arthur to take him.

They wanted to ask him about the reason behind his interest in these useless monsters. However none spoke or said anything. After all this interaction with him, they all reached one conclusion about him.

He never did something without proper reason, not even once!

"Let\'s go," after nearly half an hour, and after taking in all the monsters inside his garden, he started to retreat towards his new empire.
